TERMS: Repayable in 17 years, including 4 years of grace, at 7.9% interest per annum. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project would assist the Government in (a) providing road infrastructureto support the rapid agricultural development of the southern Alto Parana and Itapua regions, in the hinterland of the Parana river; (b) improving the Government'scapacity to meet increasing requirementsfor feeder and rural roads and develop better methods for the design, constructionand maintenanceof such roads; and (c) pursuing the objectives of the Fifth Highway Project for improving transport sector management. The primary highway and the complementaryfeeder roads to be constructedunder the project would support future rural developmentefforts and would acceleratethe rate of expansionof the agriculturalfrontier along the Parana river. Readily quantifiablebenefits would be a substan- tial reduction in transport costs, and an increase in agriculturalproduction in the area. The project would contribute to institution-buildingwithin the Ministry of Public Works and Communications: the feeder roads compo- nent would provide overall support to agriculturalprograms, while thieOCIPT componentwould help improve transport planning within the Ministry; DGV's staffing capabilities would be improved to enhance the Ministry's effectiveness. The constructionworks do not present special risks in view of the relatively standard nature of the roads and the fact that the bulk of engineeringwork is now complete. The assumptionsunderlying the economic analysis are sufficientlyconservative so that future increasesin agriculturalproduction (includingincreases resulting from the project) are not in question. A higher element of risk is attached to the institution-buildingobjectives: the stretngtheningof DGV's management capabilitiesand of OCIPT's transportplanning functionsare long-termprocesses depending largelyupon the availabilityof qualified professionalstaff; special attentionhas been placed under the project to measures addressed to bringing a permanent solution to the Ministry's staffing problems.

INTERNATIONAL BANK FOR RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE PRESIDENT TO TH'EEXECUTIVE DIRECTORS ON A PROPOSED LOAN TO THE REPUBLIC OF PARAGUAY FOR A SIXTH HIGHWAY PROJECT 1. I submit the following report and recommendation on the proposed loan to the Republic of Paraguay for the equivalent of US$39.0 million to assist in financing the Sixth Highway Project. The loan would have a term of 17 years including 4 years of grace, with interest at 7.9% per annum. PART I - THE ECONOMY I/ 2. An economic mission visited Paraguay in October 1978 and the up- dating ecoriomicreport, covering short- and medium-term developments, has been distributed to the Executive Directors ("Economic Memorandum on Paraguay" (2461-PA), M4ay 1979). Economic Performance 3. Paraguay is endowed with vast areas of unutilized lands well-suited for agriculture or livestock, and has substantial hydroelectric potential. Despite these natural resources, progress has been held back by weak public institutions in the development area, remoteness from foreign markets, scattered population, and a weak transport network. The private sector still consists mainly of small traditional firms, and the role of the public sector in the economy is limited. For many decades, per capita income and employment .grew slowly and emigration served as an outlet for unemployed and under- employed manpower. More recently, however, the economy has been growing rapidly and many Paraguayans who had emigrated to neighboring countries have returned, responding to the expanded employment opportunities associated with the construction of the Itaipu dam. Furthermore, the expansion of the agri- cultural frontier has encouraged the immigration of farmers from abroad. Nevertheless, the country's population density remains very low in relation to agricultural land. 4. Ihe economic potential of the country began to be more fully realized during the 1970's with the rapid expansion of land under cultivation and the beginning of the exploitation of the enormous hydroelectric potential I/ Paragraphs 3-13 are identical to the ones contained in the President's Report: for the Livestock and Agricultural Development Project (Report P-2482-PA of March 7, 1979). -2 - of the stretch of the Parana River along the country'sborder with Brazil and Argentina. A rise in external demand and favorableprices were instru- mental in acceleratingagricultural growth. The effectivesupply response of Paraguayan agriculturehas been assisted by improvementsin transport and implementationof a comprehensiveset of programs designed to increase and diversify agriculturalexports. The agriculturalgrowth of recent years has brought about an improvementin the real incomes of the rural population, which comprisesabout three-fifthsof the total. A significantshare of production of tobacco, cotton, and soybeans,which account for most of the recent expansion, is grown by small farmers who have received land under the Governmentand privately sponsoredcolonization programs. Roughly 25% of agriculturalworkers have benefitted from these land settlementefforts. Moreover, recently,rural wages have increasedsharply in some areas where demand for agricultural labor has exceeded supply. Thus, the benefits of agriculturalprogress have been fairly widely shared. This has reduced rural-urbanmigration. Per capita income grew at 5.2% per annum during 1972-78 compared to the 1.2% averaged during the previous 30 years. Growth in per capita incomes has been accompaniedby other improvementsin the standard of living as life expectancy and literacyhave increased,and infant mortality has declined. Nutritional levels are comparable to those found in countrieswith higher per capita incomes. Furthermore,in recent years, the Government has started to carry out a series of programs aimed at extending social and other back-up services, financial support, and technical assistance to existing and new land settlements. These programs should help in spreading the benefits of growth even more effectivelyamong the poorer segments of the population. 5. Exploitationof the country's hydropower potential has been facil- itated by treaties signed with Brazil and Argentina to form two binational authorities for the constructionand operation of two or more hydroelectric plants aggregatingat least 17,000 MW. Constructionof the Itaipu dam with Brazil, the largest ever built, has begun and is on schedule. Paraguay's economy is now in the midst of a rapid transformationspurred mainly by agriculturalexpansion and constructionactivity on the Itaipu dam. The rapid growth of agriculturehas continuedunabated in 1977-78, and, together with the reactivationof agroindustrialactivity in the wood and beef sectors, has resulted in accelerationof the GDP growth rate to over 9% in 1977-78 (as compared to 6% in 1975-76). These developmentshave been accompaniedby increased foreign capital inflows, a notable expansion of investment levels, and an accelerationof economic growth. 6. Growth has been accompaniedby relative price stability. The rate

(IPrLg) iirsa .org D E V R E S E R S T H G I R L L A - A S R I I Introduction In 2006, within the framework of the Initiative for the Integration of Regional Infrastructure in South America (IIRSA), methodologies aimed at identifying infrastructure projects and actions complementary to IIRSA’s Project Portfolio were designed. These methodologies —the Methodology for the Evaluation of the Production Integration Potential of IIRSA’s Integration and Development Hubs [Pacheco, López, 2006], and the Methodology for the Promotion of the Development of Value Added Logistics Services (SLVAs) in IIRSA’s Hubs [ALG, Farromeque, 2006]— were partially applied to the Asunción-Paranaguá and Valparaíso-Buenos Aires Project Groups (GPs, in Spanish), in the case of the production integration methodology, and to the La Paz-Tacna-Lima Project Group, in the case of the methodology for the development of logistics services. The development of these two methodologies proved that it was necessary to approach the analysis of production integration and logistics issues from an integrated perspective. The integration of both methodologies and the complementation of aspects relevant for IIRSA, D partially covered by the instruments already mentioned, would enhance data collection and E consultation to different actors, creating significant potential for a structured dialogue.
